WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-

yourself” section of this manual. Many fac-
tors including tire inflation, alignment,
driving habits and road conditions affect
tire wear and when tires should be re-
placed. Setting the tire replacement indi-
cator for a certain driving distance does
not mean your tires will last that long. Use
the tire replacement indicator as a guide

checks, including tire pressure checks
could result in tire failure. Serious vehicle

the autolight sensor located in the top side
of the instrument panel. The autolight sen-
sor controls the autolight; if it is covered,
the autolight sensor reacts as if it is dark
out and the headlights will illuminate. If
this occurs while parked with the engine off
and the key in the ON position, your vehi-
cle’s battery could become discharged.Headlight beam select

while the headlight switch is in the
orposition, the headlights will turn off after
a period of time.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature au-
tomatically turns off the headlights after a
period of time, you should turn the head-
light switch to the OFF position when the
engine is not running to avoid discharging
the vehicle battery.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
The LED portion of the headlights automatically
illuminate at 100% intensity when the engine is
started and the parking brake released. The day-
time running lights operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position. When you turn the

nate. The daytime running lights illuminate when
the parking brake is released. The daytime run-
ning lights remain on while the engine is running.
It is necessary at dusk to turn the headlight switch
ON for interior controls and switches to illumi-
nate, as those remain OFF while the switch is in
the OFF position.
